I'd love to see what 4K looks like in person. I imagine it're pretty spectacular when you consider 4K is to 1080p (the holy grail of console gaming) as 1080p is to 860x540 (would have been considered totally unacceptable even last generation).

do playing at 4K in 1080p display give much more clarity than 1080p with good AA?
i have never even once playing game superscaled so i really dont know. I always play 900p on my monitor and 720p on my TV. They look sharp enough and good looking if i have SMAA applied.
for withctcher 3, i prefer they pursue frame rate stability, good filtering, and mimalize pop-in. its distracting when walking enjoying the view, but not disctacting at all when on action (from the gameplay video i watched on gamersyde).

I'm currently running three PC games (ones that I'm playing at the moment anyhow) in 4K... Crysis 3, BF4 and GTA IV with ENB/ICE mods. As for AA, usually I set it quite low or off.. It's really not needed, and clarity is insane

That's what happened to me when I got my first 1080p monitor. The pixel pitch was so dense and there were so many pixels that round surfaces were looking great even without AA, cos there were enough pixels to show the curvature.
I haven't seen 4K in person, but I am guessing similar results !

I've been very impressed with my 4K TV with 1080p output from the PS4. I've tweaked the 'reality' settings (I.e. customised the way the TVs 1080p to 4K upscaler works) and it produces a fantastic picture

I have to say it, it's blasphemy
I liked W2 a lot, but for me W1 was really amazing, very large world, the audio was awesome too.... I felt "trapped" on W2, not as free as W1. And the scenario was pretty weak (but needed to make the story progress I guess) compared to W1.
EDIT : oups, didn't see I was on the console section. I only played them on PC.

Good to hear bud. A good 4K LED-LCD with proper scaling interpolation hardware, does wonders with 1080p material. PC gaming wise, I must admit, I can't go back to 1080p settings no more... looks so early 2000 compared to 4K gaming. But my PS4 gets a pass though, since I love their first party games.

There is no pixel crawl if you run a game at 900p. Ryse comes to mind, especially, it looks better than like 95% of 1080p games out there.
Trials Fusion and a few others run at 900p and there is not such a thing.

lol no worries. haha. I guess my thing with W1 was actually the world. I just needed a little bit more direction, which is generally what I demand from RPGs. I've never been a big fan of a completely open world RPG, it's harder for me to get into.
Having said that, I suppose that Baldur's Gate was sorta open world? So maybe I don't know for sure what I want in a game. The Bioware/BlackIsle games back then are still my favorite RPGs to date.
W1: got bored quickly
W2: struggling playing in my laptop, bored. then play on PC, bored again.
i feel that i cannot find the story that "pull" me to proceed forward in witcher series. its more like i am the one pushing the story forward.
the weird thing is, i got the similar boredom on Skyrim but the silly things in-between make me want to keep playing.
looking at the trailers, W3 will be a serious game again but with better story "pull" factor.

I insta preordered the game after seeing that text, not that the purchase was ever in doubt, but still. It was the first game I purchased from their store, but still got the loyalty discounts by inputting my old Witcher 1 and 2 keys that is good stuff, and all the DLCs for free in this age of friggin "DLC on the disc" and "season passes" just feels great. These guys made me insta preorder their game unlike Shadow of Mordor which was already in my basket in Steam until I noticed that yeah it has a season pass... Now I'll get that much later.
